Answer:

v = 39.6 m/s (first answer option)

Explanation:

Use conservation of mechanical energy.

The starting is completely potential energy and the final is all kinetic energy:

$m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2\\g * h=\frac{1}{2} v^2\\9.8*80=\frac{1}{2} v^2\\v^2=1568\\v\approx 39.6\,\,m/s$

which agrees with the first answer shown.

Which would be the best metal to use for the insulated wire?

katrin2010 [14]

Copper, because it has the lowest specific electrical resistance.

specific electrical resistance aka volume resistivity is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly that material opposes the flow of electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the flow of electric current.

Answer:

$T=51.64^\circ F$

$t=180.10s$

Explanation:

The Newton's law in this case is:

$T(t)=T_m+Ce^{kt}$

Here, $T_m$ is the air temperture, C and k are constants.

We have

$70^\circ F$ in $t=0$

So:

$T(0)=70^\circ F\\T(0)=10^\circ F+Ce^{k(0)}\\70^\circ F=10^\circ F+C\\C=70^\circ F-10^\circ F=60^\circ F$

And we have $60^\circ F$ in $t=30 s$ , So:

$T(30)=60^\circ F\\T(30)=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{k(30)}\\60^\circ F=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{k(30)}\\50^\circ F=(60^\circ F)e^{k(30)}\\e^{k(30)}=\frac{50^\circ F}{60^\circ F}\\(30)k=ln(\frac{50}{60})\\k=\frac{ln(\frac{50}{60})}{30}=-0.0061$

Now, we have:

$T=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061t}(1)$

Applying (1) for $t=1 min=60s$ :

$T=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061*60}\\T=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)0.694\\T=10^\circ F+41.64^\circ F\\T=51.64^\circ F$

Applying (1) for $T=30^\circ F$ :

$30^\circ F=10^\circ F+(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061t}\\30^\circ F-10^\circ F=(60^\circ F)e^{-0.0061t}\\-0.0061t=ln(\frac{20}{60})\\t=\frac{ln(\frac{20}{60})}{-0.0061}=180.10s$
